Lu Chen boiled water for a bath.

Not long after Shen Qiaoyue finished washing the dishes, Lu Chen urged her to take a shower.

"Honey, go take a shower first. It'll get colder later. Get some rest after you're done." Lu Chen carried the hot water to the bathroom.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Shen Qiaoyue took her pajamas to the bathroom to take a shower. She was running out of soap and remembered that she had bought several bars of soap for her wedding last time.

You need soap coupons to buy this soap; usually, they're issued by the military.

Shen Qiaoyue remembered that there was a black market at that time. She could buy some materials, make the craft herself, and then exchange them for some money on the black market.

Moreover, at that time, many people usually ate from the same pot and lived on work points.

Many things are too expensive on the market and require fixed tickets. When Shen Qiaoyue thought about exchanging some money on the black market, she immediately rejected the idea.

It's best not to cause Lu Chen any trouble.

Life at home is pretty good.

After taking a shower, it was too cold, so Shen Qiaoyue went straight back to her room.

"Lu Chen, I'm done washing up, you can go wash up now." As Shen Qiaoyue passed by, she reminded Lu Chen in the living room.

A gust of wind swept past him, and Lu Chen laughed, "I'll go right away."

Lu Chen, who had already prepared his clothes, carried hot water inside to take a bath.

There's also a faint scent of soap that smells like a wife taking a bath.

He finished washing up in five minutes and came out.

Wearing short sleeves and shorts, I closed the living room door, went back to my room, and closed the bedroom door as well.

He saw that Shen Qiaoyue was working with her back to him.

He came over, bent down, and picked up Shen Qiaoyue.

"Brother Shen, what are you doing?" Shen Qiaoyue was picked up in his princess carry and saw his handsome face.

In her haste, she wrapped her arms around his neck and felt his warm skin.

Lu Chen smiled and said, "Finish your exercise early and get some rest."

Shen Qiaoyue finally understood what Lu Chen meant.

"Brother Shen, I still have work to finish!" Shen Qiaoyue was still a little out of sorts.

"You said you'd listen to me. Working eight hours a day is tiring enough. Let's continue tomorrow and take care of other things first." Lu Chen hadn't slept well all night; he couldn't handle the pressure.

This must be resolved today.

He increased the amount of firewood when boiling the water, hoping to heat it up faster.

Shen Qiaoyue stared at Lu Chen's expression; it seemed there was no way to avoid it.

However, Shen Qiaoyue was very shy about such things, especially when facing Lu Chen.

She had never felt this way before.

Shen Qiaoyue was nervous because Lu Chen was a rough man who didn't know how to control himself at all.

However, judging from what happened the day before yesterday, Shen Qiaoyue was not that nervous.

“Brother Chen…”

Shen Qiaoyue's lips were already sealed, and she had no chance to speak.

Lu Chen was afraid that Shen Qiaoyue would refuse, so he didn't give her a chance to speak.

As the room filled with the mingling of breaths, the warmth steadily increased, and the waves of stimulation brought immense satisfaction.

We agreed to finish early so we could get some rest.

Shen Qiaoyue had lost count of how much time had passed; she only felt that her voice was completely hoarse.

“Brother Chen…”

For Lu Chen, hearing Shen Qiaoyue's call was a huge encouragement.

Lu Chen reluctantly ended the battle after Shen Qiaoyue finally succumbed to exhaustion and fell into a deep sleep.

The happy couple has no idea what it's like for the other two to suffer so much that they can't be together!

Liu Xinlan went home to rest after her night shift. Xu Qianli also needed to train during the day, so she took advantage of the time when she went to the army canteen for dinner to try her luck and see if she could see Xu Qianli.

Reminded by Chen Xiaohua's words, Liu Xinlan wanted to find a suitable opportunity to have a good talk with Xu Qianli.

Upon entering the cafeteria, Liu Xinlan observed for a moment and finally saw Xu Qianli eating with his good friend An Lude.

Liu Xinlan noticed that there was another girl beside him, Fang Guiyan from the propaganda department.

With her strong sixth sense, Liu Xinlan could sense that Fang Guiyan liked Xu Qianli.

After finally preparing herself mentally and mustering her courage, Liu Xinlan hesitated when she saw Fang Guiyan chatting and laughing with Xu Qianli.

After getting my food, I found a small corner to sit down.

When I feel depressed and upset, I can't taste anything when I eat.

As she ate with her head down, thinking about Xu Qianli's smiling face towards Fang Guiyan, she felt a tightness in her chest.

"You have to work the night shift. If you don't eat something good, you'll lose weight." Xu Qianli brought over a bowl of pork ribs.

He sat directly opposite Liu Xinlan.

Liu Xinlan looked up at him. The portions for each person were small, but his bowl was full of ribs, and he had eaten all the potatoes.

“This rib is a portion that we divided among several of us. Xiaohua said that you have been having stomach problems lately and are not getting enough nutrition, so we each left you two pieces of rib so that you can get enough nutrition.”

Xu Qianli made each of his brothers give him two pieces of gold.

The way those people looked at him made it seem like they wanted to kill Xu Qianli.

"Won't they have objections to what you're doing?" Liu Xinlan's unhappiness vanished instantly at that moment.

The food in my mouth also tasted.

A slight smile flickered across her lips, but she quickly concealed it to avoid losing composure.

"Deputy Commander, you know our instructor is so good to Dr. Liu, why is Dr. Liu so indifferent?" Duan Jiahe frowned and complained to An Lude, "The instructor has liked her for many years, doesn't Dr. Liu realize it?"

Anlude's eyes were murderous; the ribs in his bowl had been taken away, and he was extremely unhappy while eating.
